Case Study: Karachaliou Brothers, General Partnership, Chooses Blaser Swisslube Cutting Fluids

“At Karachaliou Brothers, General Partnership, consistency is the cornerstone of production. Every component must be exactly the same—from the first to the thousandth.”

The Challenge

Karachaliou Brothers, LLC, a company specializing in the machining of high-precision metal components, faced a significant challenge. Their cutting tools, when used with their previous cutting fluid, had a limited service life, lasting for about three machining operations. This led to increased tooling costs and reduced productivity. They were looking for a solution that would address these issues while ensuring uncompromising quality.

The Solution: Blaser B-Cool MC 610

In collaboration with Novitron and Blaser Swisslube, Karachaliou Bros. O.E. selected Blaser B-Cool MC 610 as the appropriate cutting fluid. Prior to installation, the Novitron team conducted a comprehensive water analysis and assessment of operating conditions. The B-Cool MC 610 was selected for:

• its stability
• its clean operation
• its excellent performance in stainless steel machining
• The Results

The results were impressive:

• Tool life was doubled, achieving up to 600 parts per tool change.
• Consistent, high surface quality.
• Significant reduction in tool wear.
• Clean working environment.

The owner of Karachaliou Brothers. General Partnership states: “The process has become more controlled, production more efficient, and quality consistently high.” The Novitron team continuously monitors the data, ensuring that production remains efficient and stable over time.
